Since the "one person":http://livejournal.com/~snow_cr4sh/ I know that would truly appreciate this is still asleep, I'm going to tell all of you.
First, allow me to introduce "Woot!":http://woot.com/, a website devoted to selling electronics and, sometimes, other items at, what are usually, very low prices. They sell one item a day every weekday beginning at 12:00am. That's it. The item remains on sale until it sells out, or until 11:59pm, whichever comes first.
Today, for instance, they are selling a set of Harmon Kardon Computer Speakers, 2.1 channels, 60W total output, nice sounding, lots of bass, for $19.99 each (up to three) with a $5 S&H charge. With both Jess and I in need of new speakers (thanks to our wonderful cat and his tendency to chew through wires) I bought two. If you're in the need for a good sounding set of no frills computer speakers, it's a good deal. Sometimes, they have much better deals. Like the set of Dell 5.1 surround sound computer speakers they had a week or two ago for $29.99. Some deals are better than others, but it's always well worth the price if you're in need of the item.
Now, here's the funny part: About a week ago, the deal of the day was a neoprene mystery bag. It was a small neoprene pouch (worth about $5 on it's own) for $0.01 plus $5 S&H. The pouch came filled with something… but you wouldn't know what unless you bought it. Some people got recordable media, digital film, model cars, small speakers, cables, etc. Some people got close to nothing. One guy, however, supposedly got "this":http://www.passwird.com/images/124_2446%20(Large).JPG. That's right… a home theater system complete with receiver, 5.1 speakers, and a DVD player. That's just terrific.
So, I truly suggest you check out "Woot!":http://woot.com/. Even if you never buy anything, it's fun just to look. They even have an "RSS Feed":http://www.woot.com/feed.aspx to make it easy on you.
